Here comes the rain again...

The orange gang are all rugged and it's only September! This is so depressing. We managed to hack out today in a rainless spell - quite a miracle really. In fact the sun was actually trying to come out, which seemed quite novel after the past few weeks of nothing but dull, grey skies. When we got back to the yard the rain started again and hasn't stopped since.

We went out with YM on Sammie's ginger girlfriend, and new girl. It was only for just over an hour but we picked up some speed on the good ground and Sammie flew up a hill and totally puffed himself out by the time we got to the top.

I long lined him yesterday so after the ride today I reckon I can afford to give him tomorrow off if the weather is as dire as it was today. We were saying that we'll probably change the day/night out rota sooner than we expected if it carries on like this. I was hoping we'd keep them out at night until mid/end October, but this weather is something else.
